Overview
This FOA seeks applications to expand the impact of DOE's existing residential weatherization programs by utilizing leveraged resources and enhanced community partnerships to perform deep energy retrofits of low-income residential buildings and empower local community representation within the energy workforce. DOE seeks proposals that drive innovative approaches to program coordination and service delivery, while fostering the collaboration of dynamic and diverse teams. Applicants can apply for one of the following three topic areas:
- Multifamily Housing
- Single Family and Manufactured Housing
- Workforce Development
While cost share is not required, applicants are encouraged to use awarded E&I funds in conjunction with DOE WAP formula awards and leverage other funding sources to deploy demonstration projects that have potential to be scaled nationally, enhance the benefits realized by underserved communities, and accelerate an equitable transition to a clean-energy economy.
